Chapter 891: Its All Part of the Plan
The Indestructible Adamant Nymph Emperor was by far not the strongest among the Nymph Emperors, in spite of its unrivaled defense, and its cultivation was relatively lower. At the same time, his essence was of the earth attribute, the most stable of all elements. If it had been fire-attribute, Tang San's body would not have been able to bear such a bloodline power.
Additionally, the vast life energy given to him by the Ancestral Tree nourished his body to the core. The month Tang San spent cultivating in Skytree City had been immensely significant, repairing the flaws in his body and healing the injuries from his tribulation. At the same time, it allowed him to accumulate an enormous amount of life force, expanding his longevity and resilience by countless times.
Even so, controlling and stabilizing the bloodline power of an Emperor was still incredibly taxing for him. He had to rely on the Golden Fiend energy he had gained from Mei Gongzi's tribulation, combined with the annihilation energy from his own Nine Heavens Ten Earths Divine Extinguishing Tribulation, and even then, he barely managed to seal this power.
His pale complexion was indeed real, but his exhaustion was not due to the fight. Rather, it was because sealing and bearing this Emperor's bloodline imprint was ridiculously strenuous!
As Tang San now found out first-hand, an Emperor was indeed a being of a different level. He could have easily given up part of the bloodline power, making it much easier to bear. However, he had decided to take the risk in order to obtain the entirety of it. With this intact essence, he could ensure that when he became an Emperor in the future, he could immediately get a twelfth-order transcendent bloodline, securing his place among the top Emperors. So, no matter how taxing it was, as long as his body didn't collapse, he would persevere and seal this hard-earned, immense power within himself, to be absorbed gradually in the future.
But even with his powerful divine consciousness, the assistance from his divine seat, the many bloodline powers within his body, the protection of his chaos energy, and the support of his fortune from the Polar Luck Domain, it took him an entire day to gradually suppress the aura of the Adamant Nymph Emperor's bloodline within his body. It was truly a thrilling ordeal.
However, at this moment, Tang San also discovered an even greater ability of the Polar Luck Domain than before.
As an Emperor, the Indestructible Adamant Nymph Emperor's death undoubtedly resulted in immense misfortune. So immense, in fact, that the eruption of this misfortune was bound to trigger a change in the fortune of the entire plane. But at the same time... the more misfortune there was, the greater the corresponding fortune!
If the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor had been present, Tang San wouldn't have had any chance at all. The Celestial Fox Demon Emperor would have undoubtedly seized this fortune for himself and the entire Celestial Fox clan without hesitation.
